| Abstract | ||
| Background: Cultural diversity has become an integral part of educational settings, particularly in the nursing profession, in which cultural intelligence plays a pivotal role in helping nursing students augment their academic communication skills. Aim of the study: To assess the relation between cultural intelligence and academic communication among nursing students. Research design: A descriptivecorrelational design was applied. Setting: The study was conducted at the Faculty of Nursing at Tanta University. Subjects: The total sample was 1085 nursing students in each academic year of 2023-2024. Tools: Three tools were used: nursing students' cultural intelligence questionnaire, nursing students' academic communication skills questionnaire, and nursing students' academic communication obstacles questionnaire. Results: More than half (51.2%) of nursing students had a moderate perception level of cultural intelligence. More than half (58.6%) of nursing students had a moderate level of academic communication skills. The students’ barriers were the most common obstacles to academic communication. Conclusion: There was a highly positive significant correlation between nursing students' cultural intelligence and their academic communication skills. Recommendations: The faculty of nursing should integrate cultural intelligence into the nursing curriculum focused on knowledge and skills to develop cultural competence, as well as nursing students should seek learning opportunities to learn about different cultures through reading books and attending cultural events. | ||
